OT: TV & Movie Thread: Part II

[Gardner McKay]

In the 3rd season of Manifest. A strangely addicting show.

Also, halfway through the first season of Brooklyn 99. I haven't been hooked into a show like this since I started watching How I Met Your Mother.

I thought I was the only one intrigued by Manifest....been hooked from the very beginning.

Couldn't get into Brooklyn 99.

Terry Crews is one of my favorite actors/media personalities so it was easy for me. I also find Andy Samberg to be absolutely hilarious.

I like Samberg -- I first saw him in a British show called Cuckoo....he was hysterical in that....the show was not the same after he left.

Gonna just drop this here.

I don't think I noticed anyone mention "A Discovery of Witches" -- anyone watch it?

We've lost a great talent. I just saw his appearance on Law & Order...he was just as mesmerizing then as he was later on. RIP, Michael.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

So sad. What a talent this guy was - such a great actor and an inspirational rags to riches story and he was always trying to give back and help under privileged people.

Omar is one of the best TV characters of all time.

For those who like both true crime and documentaries @SnowblindNYR, Dr. Death is a four-part deep dive into "neurosurgeon" Christopher Duntsch, who maimed 33 patients and killed 2 on the operating table. I believe it is on Peacock, which also has adapted a TV series (also called Dr. Death) based on Duntsch's crimes, starring Joshua Jackson, Alec Baldwin, and Christian Slater.

Thanks, too bad I don't have Peacock.

There are a few good documentaries on Netflix. Turning Point about the war on terror. And everything "untold" is great, especially crime and penalties I think it's called. About a mobster that bought a minor league hockey team for his son.

Yup, I'm starting Turning Point today. I'll try and check out this other one about the mobster buying a hockey team, but saving my energy for the 9/11 documentaries that are hitting all this week and weekend.

He was also as nice as anyone I've ever met in the industry. A great guy to chat with.

I saw an ad for this on the side of a bus the other day....It intrigued me because I would never have imagined those three in the same vehicle.

I imagine funny as hell also. I suspect he had a wicked sense of humor.

I watching a movie called worth with Michael Keaton. It's based on a true story about a lawyer that tried to settle with the victims of 9/11 by assigning how much the loss of life was lost.

He probably did, but mostly I found him genuine, warm, and bright.

I heard Worth was good. Recommend?

One of my favorite pics I ever took at a film or TV event.

Finished up Season 1 (hope there's a season 2?) of The Defeated on Netflix. Interesting perspective of the aftermath in a country that lost the war (Germany) and the clusterf*ck that was Berlin in 1946. Definitely something different.

I liked it though some of it I was confused by. It wasn't something that prevented me from enjoying the movie though and understanding the overall.

I’m definitely going to check that out next. I’m a couple episodes from finishing seasons 1-4 of Snowfall on FX. Really enjoyed it.

We loved Snowfall ! For me...it was right up there with The Wire .
